THE NEW LONDON MURDER.

Business Manager WhIttlesey of the s'Day', Dies From the Effects of the Wounds Received Monday at the Hands of Crank.
 NEW LONDON, Aug. 10.-Ezra c. Whit tlesey, business manager of the Day, who was shot by Fred A. s. Perry on Monday, died this afternoon at 2 o'clock. The cause of the attack upon Business Manager Whit tlesey has been partly told. An article ap- peared in the Day last Wednesday in relation to the following plaeard, which was dis played on the veranda of Perry's house:
 Dogs Starving in Back Yard.
 One From Blossom Kennel N. Y.
 This House 'tHell'' Vacated.
 I will not abate from my present position,
 So help me God.
 Tyranny is endured by fools only.
 This notice was commented upon in the Day and the following personal reference was made to Perry:
 For several years there has visited New London a tall, slim, active young man named Frederick Perry. His slender appear ance and peculiar system of nerves indicated that he was living upon the principal and not upon the interest of his health. At the time of his first arrival he devoted himself to aquatic pursuits, having boat in which he enjoyed excursions up the river and to points outside the harbor. Of late he has been very cratic in his movements and at times exhibited signs of dementia. He now lives, or did live, with his mother on Frank lin street, on the corner of the street that leads to the jail. Perry gave up his boat for dogs, dogs that howl in the hot hours of midsummer night. Some con- plaint of not offensive nature was made against the outcries of these outrageous dogs. The protest of the neighbors seemed to have affected Perry powerfully.
 Perry remains very quiet at the station house and says nothing unless addressed by someone.
 He is tall, gaunt man about 45 years of age, with thin face, well shaped features, high smooth forehead and delicate blue-veined temples. His eyes are deep set under over hanging brows and are on occasions steady or shifting, sparkling or lustreless, as the differ ent sensations or sentiments are translated through them from the diseased brain, for that Perry's brain is demented no sane man who converses with him for five minutes can doubt His address is easy, language refined and while on one subject fluent and we'll con- sidered. But he cannot conine himself to a subject and runs off in tangents to the mat- ter under discussion every few moments.
 Judge Hewitt, the man who wrote the arti- cle in question, says that Perry is sane and that the highest penalty of the law is not too severe for the slayer. The judge further stated that the article which spurred Perry on to the crime was true in every particular, in no manner exaggerated and that all the facts were known and notorious among Per rvs neighbors on Franklin street.

The League to be Banned.

LONDON, Aug. 1O.-The lord mayors an- nual banquet to the ministers was given at the Mansion House this evening. Premier Salisbury in a speech said that the govern ment had done everything to give effect to the country's mandate to preserve the unity of the empire. Extra powers had been placed at the government's command and the coun- try had right to complain if those powers were not used discreetly but firmly. [This is believed to signify that the government will proclaim the National league) Regarding Egypt the Premier said England must see real security in that country; that before the British troops are withdrawn Egypt must be free from internal sedition and safe from ex- ternal attack.

A Very Gloomy outlook For the Agri-
 cultur1sts.
 CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-In reviewing the drouth situation the Journal says tonight "The outlook for the agrisulturists of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and the southern portions of Michigan and Wisconsin is gloomy in the ex- treme. Those naturally splendid and fertile territories, undoubtedly including some of the finest and largest granaries and food stores of the North American continent, have for fourteen months been subject to visitation of drouth to which parallel cannot be found within the range of the oldest inhabitants recollection. During the past few weeks the state of things has been intensified in the districts mentioned and much injury to grow ing crops has resulted. So arid 8 waste is there around Chicago that for many miles in some directions not spear of grass is visible, and in others the existence of green vegetation is painfully minute. In many places the fields are absolutely and hopelessly burned out. The public parks are devastated with dryness. Grass lands have probably suffered most. The destruction is not uniform, though where crops were planted late in the season the owners will probably not realize the cost of planting; where the seed was put into the ground early enough somewhat less disastrous result may be hoped for. Of necessary food for live stock there will be an appalling dearth, and thus the prices of milk, meat, butter, cheese and other farm prod ucts may be expected to rise to an altogether unprecedented height. The rainfall in the broad region extending from Michigan to the Southwest, never so high as on either side of that region, has been abnormal1y low.
 The intense heat of to-day was followed by a refreshing shower which commenced about 10 o'clock tonight and the indications are now good for general rain in this vicinity.

AN ADVENTUREsOME GIRL.
How She Went out for a Sail an
 Was Finally Saved by Campin

How She Went out for Sail and
 Was Finally Saved by Camping
 Party.
 On Monday afternoon last aparty consist ing of Hendrick H. Munson, bookkeeper for E, E. Hall & Son of Chapel street; J. w. Ballou, the druggist; MT. Pardee, of Cheshire, and Mir. Smith set out in a sharpie from Cosey Beach, where they had been camping, or Oyster Point. When about half way there they saw close to them..a catboat. Ap- parently nobody was in 1t. They nove 10, and were surprised when their attention was taken by the appearance before them of a girl. She called to the party to take her aboard She wanted to escape, she said. The camping party sailed alongside, and the girl oot aboard There was also man in the boat, somewhat boozy, who remonstrateo. He became enraged because she had left him, and three times he tried to cut into the sharnie with his own boat, but he was kept from doing any damage by the party who used their oars. When he came up the last time he was forcibly hit with one of the oars, which quieted him.
 The eirl said that she wanted to go ashore. She was about fourteen. Her story was that her mother gave her twenty-five cents that morning, with which to take a ride on the water. She went out with this man about Q o'clock in the morning. He refused to put her ashore, although it was well along in the afternoon.
 She was landed at Oyster Point from which place she soon reached the horse cars and went to her home on Water street, where she claimed she lived.
